Many thanks Adam and Steve. That's good to know that all the important information is available plus having the level meter. I certainly would like a top LCD screen, but having the information in the viewfinder is a good compromise. I may still hold out for a K-5 if I can get the right deal (price and warranty), though that is getting difficult in the UK now the newer models are out. Though I do like the funky colours of the K-30. :)

Hi,
I would like to know what information is displayed in the K-30 viewfinder. How does this compare to the information you would find on the K-5 top LCD screen.
I ask as I am looking for a new Pentax camera and the additional LCD screen is one reason that leans me towards the K-5. I know information is displayed on the back LCD screen, but I am likely to have this turned off to preserve battery, which ever camera I use.
Thanks in advance

Thanks Patrick. I have considered the K-30, but the K-5 is more appealing, though I would not rule it out... decisions, decision. I plan on mainly photographing landscape & nature, festivals and street are my primary areas to start with. I will gladly post some pics when the time comes : )

Hi,
I'm not a Pentax owner..... sorry.
I'm from Yorkshire, England though currently in Cornwall for another week or so. I'm hoping to get back into photography and have become quite a frequent visitor here. I have been researching, debating , umming and arrring about what camera I should start with for quite a few weeks. I have managed to actually get hold of some cameras and must say that the Pentax have appealed to me the most. I did try out a K7 in a shop and it felt just very nice to hold, if a little on the heavy side, but certainly solidly built. So now I am looking for a good K5 or a K-r but probably the K5... oh, I'm getting closer to being a Pentax owner.
Anyway, hello everyone and thanks for having a wonderful and informative site.
Sarah
